Cassie828 0 #1 September 14, 2003 So I know it's not THAT big a deal, and hey, we're all here because we're going through the process of getting our licenses, but I just had to share my excitement with you guys - I graduated AFF on Friday!!! And I did my first solo jump! It was so awesome - freefall took forever! Unfortunately then the weather turned nasty, but hopefully I'll be making some jumps end of this week.

peachsouthern 0 #6 September 15, 2003 CONGRATS MARY!!!! That is awesome, and of course it's a big deal! Did you get to do any jumps after AFF8. I tried getting down there today, but of course the weather wasn't cooperating. I'm trying to fit it in sometime between these 2 storms (Hopefully Wed) I don't think the rain is ever going to stop! How did your other friend do? Did she finish up yet? Well I can't wait to get down there when we both can finally jump off of student status! Michelle "There are only two ways to live your life.

There might be many many steps on the way to the liscense, but this has to be one of the biggest.I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
